10/6/15 5:55 am CDT
Good morning, Tiger Fans,
Yesterday it was announced that LSU's October 17th home contest against Florida will kickoff at 6 p.m. and will be televised on ESPN. The contest will be the first night game in Tiger Stadium between the two teams since 2009, and only the third such contest since that incredible game in 1997, which was one of the most exciting contests I've ever witnessed. When LSU and Florida meet 10 days from now, it could be an epic Tiger Stadium battle of undefeated top-10 teams, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. LSU has a very important, and very dangerous, game against Steve Spurrier's South Carolina Gamecocks this Saturday at 11 a.m. (ESPN), and it's deserving of LSU's full attention. In tomorrow's report, we'll start taking a closer look at the Gamecocks with our weekly statistical comparisons.
As he does each Monday, Coach Miles met with the media yesterday, and here's a full transcript of what was said. And, of course, I've provided a quick summary of the key points below:
• Miles started by acknowledging that the people of South Carolina are having a difficult time with all the flooding and said his thoughts and prayers are with them.
Sidenote: As of now, this week's game in South Carolina is still set to be played as scheduled, according to reports like this one. After seeing all the devastation in Columbia on television reports, quite frankly I'm surprised that it's still on. I second Miles' comments and pray for all the victims of that terrible tragedy.
• Obviously peeved about wide receiver play in last week's game, Miles pointed out that if it there had not been a couple of drops the team would have likely had another 150 yards of offense and two more touchdowns. Later he confirmed that he is looking at shuffling the lineup, although he said there will not be "wholesale changes." He also indirectly suggested that Trey Quinn might get more looks there when he named him as one of several players who has the capability to step forward and make plays.
• Asked whether he was concerned that the intermediate passing game seems to be dissolving, Miles said, "I think there is a need to throw where they're not, and I think there are many times that we're throwing routes that have the ability to hit several different areas. I think there are choices on where we throw the ball… If you kind of look through the routes and watch 'em, you'll see that sometimes there is a crosser and sometimes there is a square-in and a deep post. So really three routes that are in major consideration almost in every route we call."
• LSU has been penalized in each of the last two games for a player continuing to play once his helmet comes off. Miles said the helmets must be too loose and he's going to insist that the team's equipment man fit the team again.
• After several short kickoffs, Miles brought in Cameron Gamble to kick off and he promptly gave the team a five-yard delay of game penalty. Miles joked that Gamble is the kind of guy who stands over a putt for about three minutes before putting it.
• Miles praised Sione Teuhema, Lewis Neal, Kevin Toliver and Jamal Adams for their play on Saturday. Teuhema had seven tackles including one tackle for loss, Neal had two sacks, and Toliver and Adams both had takeaways.
• When asked if it was tempting to just forget the passing game since Leonard Fournette is running so well, Miles chuckled and said no, adding that he wants very much for the passing game to work. He then suggested that the team only passed two times in the second half last week because the game was in hand, but that in closer contests they will be more balanced in the second halves.
• In Saturday's game, LSU's defense gave up a lot of yards when reserve linebackers Duke Riley and Donnie Alexander were in the game. When asked about this, Miles said there's no substitute for experience.
• Miles also gave an injury status update: Starting defensive end Tashawn Bower, who didn't play Saturday, will be available this week. In fact, Miles said he was just nicked and could have probably played Saturday. Linebacker Lamar Louis, who suffered a minor concussion and missed the second half against Eastern Michigan, will be good to go this week as well. Tight end Dillon Gordon is still day-to-day and there was no timeline given on when safety Jalen Mills might return.
In basketball news, LSU started practice yesterday without its superstar Ben Simmons, who was out with a sore ankle. Simmons' status is listed as day-to-day. According to reports like this one, Junior Brian Bridgewater also missed the opening day of practice with a lingering leg injury. Yesterday's practice was the first of 30 allowed prior to the opening game of the 2015-16 season on November 13 against McNeese State at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. Included in the 30 practice days will be an exhibition contest at the Maravich Center against Southwest Baptist on November 6. LSU's exhibition tour of Australia, and the 10 days of practice they held in preparation for it, do not count toward the 30-practice limit and will surely be advantageous for the Tigers. Simmons starred on that trip to his native country and led the team in points (20 pg), rebounds (9 pg), assists (5.4 pg), steals (3.6 pg) and blocked shots (2.2 pg).
In football recruiting, here's a brief tidbit to pass along: One of LSU's top linebacker targets, Keion Joyner of Havelock, North Carolina, is no longer a member of the Havelock High football team. According to multiple reports, Havelock coach Jim Bob Bryant confirmed the news late last night but did not provide any details as to why. Joyner has family in south Louisiana (Abbeville) and had recently narrowed his college choices to LSU, North Carolina and Florida State.
In closing, please note that I'll be updating our ticket exchange later today. If you have LSU tickets to sell, please send me the info for posting. Also I'll be updating our page of LSU Football View-in Parties, so if you represent an LSU alumni group and have information about your view-in parties that you would like me to post, let me know.
10/5/15 5:20 am CDT
Good morning, Tiger Fans,
After a wild weekend in college football in which LSU beat Eastern Michigan 42-22 and four top-10 teams faltered, LSU climbed two spots in the AP Poll to No. 7 and three spots in the Coaches poll to No. 5. A total of six SEC schools made the top-25s, and LSU is the highest ranked of them all. The other four are: Alabama (8/10), Texas A&M (9/11), Florida (11/12), Ole Miss (14/13), and Georgia (19/16). For a complete look at the rankings, click here.
Next up for LSU is an 11 a.m. contest in South Carolina, and LSU has opened as an 11.5-point favorite, per Vegas Insider. In case you haven't heard, the state of South Carolina is dealing with a massive rain event in much of the state, and at least four people have died in the flooding. Please keep all effected by the storm in your thoughts and prayers. Columbia, the home of the Gamecocks, has already received more than a foot of rain since Friday, but, according to reports, this week's game between LSU and South Carolina should not be affected.
In yesterday's report I expressed my disappointment in Saturday's game, but I want to make it clear that I am not down on these Tigers. Sure, I was hoping to see LSU use the contest to develop more of a passing game, and I kind of felt like they weren't able to take advantage of a good opportunity to do so. But, after revisiting the game, I now feel a bit better overall about the win. LSU came out strong, scored on their first two possessions, and then substituted heavily on defense, which is something I had hoped they would do. The Tigers ended up scoring on all but four of their possessions – one of which was a fluke interception that we'll discuss in a moment, and another was the 94-yard drive at the end of the game that ate up eight-and-a-half minutes off the clock before LSU took a knee at the EMU four-yard line rather than punching it in. Sure, it wasn't the clean blowout that many of us hoped for, and there are a lot of things to improve, but is was a dominating win that gave a lot of reserves some much needed action, and that will be valuable for the Tigers down the road.
As we've done every Monday this season, today we'll "Rewind" and take a look at the game after having enough time to let the initial emotional response wear off. As always, we welcome your comments and feedback. (And thanks to my man Jake Martin for his weekly help with this MMR feature.)
Monday Morning Rewind - Post Eastern Michigan
About that Passing Attack…
Against Eastern Michigan, the LSU Tigers produced 80 passing yards, four completions, no touchdown passes and an interception. Do these numbers signal the end of the world as we know it? Certainly not, but they do create reason for concern, which is why in today's MMR, we're going to dive deep into what happened to LSU's passing game Saturday.
Now, before going any further, I want to say that Harris has shown himself to be a very sound decision-maker this season and I have a lot of confidence in him. However, in Saturday's game he made a few questionable decisions.
In the first quarter, Eastern Washington loaded the box with eight defenders, daring LSU to throw the football. The Tigers obliged. On a play-action pass, Travin Dural ran a deep post and Malachi Dupré ran a comeback in the middle of the field. Dural took defenders with him down the field and Dupré was wide open, but Harris, who we all know loves to throw the long ball, decided to test the waters with Dural and threw an incomplete pass. The Tigers were bailed out with a pass interference call. Later in the second half, Harris tried Tyron Johnson down the sideline, but he was blanketed by an Eastern Washington defender. The 20-yard pass fell incomplete, while Dupré ran a short five-and-in route and was wide open underneath with plenty of room to run. Harris has a strong arm and is usually quite accurate in his deep passes, often giving Tiger wide receivers the ability to go up and get the ball. However, he can't fall in love with going deep. In future games, I'd like to see Harris check down to routes underneath and give LSU receivers an opportunity to make plays in the open field. I was especially pleased to see Harris convert a third-and-11 in the second quarter with a big-time completion to tight end Collin Jeter, and I hope to see more of that moving forward.
While Harris did make a few questionable decisions, the wide receivers have to take a big share of the blame for Saturday's passing woes. Dural struggled more in this game than any other game of his career, as he had multiple uncharacteristic drops. After the pass interference call on the first drive of the first quarter, Dural dropped a pass and then Tyron Johnson dropped another one on the very next play. Dural's most notable blunder came when he dropped a wide open pass on third down, forcing the Tigers to take a field goal right before the half. Along with Dural and Johnson, Dupré had a drop in the end zone that would have been a touchdown, though in his defense the pass was a bit behind him. The Tigers also had to settle for a field goal on a 3rd-and-7 in the first half after a pass from Harris to Dupré was knocked away by a defender in the end zone. Instead of planting his feet and high-pointing the ball, Dupré tried to catch it in stride. He would've had an opportunity to go up and get the ball had he been more aggressive. The reason I wanted to point out these plays is because LSU's wide receivers are so talented that Tiger fans continually call for them to get the ball more. So when LSU develops a game plan to use them in the passing game, these receivers need to showcase that talent to force the coaching staff's hand in using them. Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham did that in 2013, and with the season still young, I have not lost confidence that this receiving corps will make big plays down the road.
Last but not least, the pass protection upfront suffered because of miscommunication on the line of scrimmage. It seemed to happen more on the left side of the line with Maea Teuhema and Jerald Hawkins. For instance, on Harris' interception, Hawkins was looking to block an outside linebacker, who ran a delay stunt to the inside. Meanwhile, Teuhema was trying to block an end. To help on the inside, Teuhema passed the end off to an off-balance Hawkins who fell and allowed the interception to take place, as the defender knocked the ball out of Harris' hand. This was one of a few plays that suggested the Tigers weren't as mentally sharp as they typically are.
Numbers Game on Defense
We've already touched on the offensive side of the ball, so let's take a look at the defensive side. Some coverage confusion, poor tackling by defensive linemen (and a few linebackers) and, quite frankly, some nice play calls by Eastern Michigan, allowed the Eagles to gain 255 total yards against the Tigers. The coverage confusion came on a long pass that setup a touchdown score. Linebacker Duke Riley was covering a receiver before releasing him and no LSU player in the secondary picked up the receiver. The play set Eastern Michigan with a first-and-goal from the LSU 6. Eastern Michigan running back Darius Jackson broke several tackles throughout the night, and broke tackles of Davon Godchaux and Arden Key on one play, which was an eye-opener. One of those great EMU play-calls I mentioned was a wide receiver screen that was dialed up exactly when LSU blitzed Tre'Davious White from the outside. The play went for roughly 40 yards and set up a score.
As mentioned earlier, another factor contributing to the defense's lackluster performance was the number of young players seeing action, and that just comes with the territory. We said heading into the game that we wanted LSU to play a lot of reserves in an attempt to develop depth, and they did just that. When you're playing a lot of reserves, you're going to have some mishaps. That's okay, that's how teams grow, and this was the ideal game to foster that kind of growth. After LSU forced two three-and-outs to start the game, Sione Teuhema, Greg Gilmore, Frank Herron, Duke Riley, and Lamar Louis (who suffered a concussion in the contest), all came out to start the next drive. When the Tigers needed to force key stops, Kendell Beckwith and the other key starters were on the field making plays and taking care of business.
A couple of defensive players who deserve props for their play were Lewis Neal and Arden Key, both of whom proved they can get to the passer. Neal recorded two sacks, while Key generated quarterback hurries, one of which forced the pick six by Deion Jones.
Annnndddd... Just because we can't get enough of Leonard Fournette
A statistic I saw on Twitter by LSU's Todd Politz said Fournette has 31 carries this season on second down situations of less than 10 yards to go. During those 31 carries, Fournette picked up 25 first downs and rushed for 302 yards and six touchdowns. I revisited the tape to record every Fournette second down run in Saturday's game, including two second downs of 10 or greater. Fournette rushed it 10 times and recorded a first down eight of those times. The only two times he didn't get it was when the yardage was 10 and 12 to go. A lot of credit goes to the amazing abilities of Fournette, but you have to also tip your hat to John David Moore and the LSU offensive line.
Today's bottom line: LSU is 4-0, ranked very highly in the polls, and is favored by more than a touchdown in next week's contest against Steve Spurrier's South Carolina Gamecocks. It's clearly a great time to be a Tiger!
In closing, it's time to share with you the results of our Week 5 Louisiana High School Pickem Contest. Last night we analyzed the picks, crunched the numbers, and found that the there are three winners this week as there was a three-way tie between the users "Billy Myers," "Gashouse80," and "Scott Murry." Each of these users correctly picked 43 out of 50 games (86%!). Congratulations, men! If you are one of these winners, please send me a little blurb about yourself and your connection to LA prep football so I can add you to our page of weekly winners. Also, please send me your address so I can send you a couple of DandyDon.com koozies and bumper stickers. (Those will be going out to all previous winners this week.) Voting for this week's games is now open and we hope many of you will decide to join in the action. Please note that it's never too late to join our Pickem Contest as we'll be announcing each week's winner.
10/4/15 6:00 am CDT
Good morning. Tiger Fans,
In a game that left me feeling much like I did after last week's game, the Tigers defeated Eastern Michigan 44-22 and improved to 4-0 on the season. For the second week in a row, LSU turned in a lackluster performance against a heavy underdog, but still managed to win a game that was never really in question, thanks to the strong running of Leonard Fournette. It's always great to get a win, but what's disappointing is that the game was supposed to be one in which LSU would clean up a lot of mistakes made last week while improving the passing game. Unfortunately, none of that happened. Just like last week, LSU struggled with miscues on special teams, penalties, dropped passes and less than stellar defense. It is worth noting, however, that LSU substituted heavily throughout the game, starting on EMU's second drive.
Early on, LSU appeared intent on getting the passing game going as they came out throwing the ball, but a combination of dropped passes, inaccurate throws and weak pass protection kept the Tigers' offense firmly on the ground. The game was Brandon Harris' weakest of the season, but he sure didn't get any help from his receivers. Harris ended the night with a very pedestrian stat-line of 4-of-15 for 80 yards and one interception. No receiver had more than one reception, and the Tigers' top-two receivers, Travin Dural and Malachi Dupré, each had drops. I think it's high time for LSU to work on its short to intermediate passing game rather than limiting its passing attack to mostly deep routes, and it's time to give guys like Trey Quinn and DJ Chark a chance to show what they can do… but that's a topic for another report.
While LSU's overall performance left me doubting whether this Tiger team is as good as I thought it was, Leonard Fournette's performance only reinforced my belief that he's the best player in college football. Fournette rushed for 233 yards and three touchdowns, making him the first player in SEC history to rush for more than 200 yards in three-straight games. Just like last week, Fournette would have likely broken LSU's all-time single game rushing record if he had been given carries on LSU's last drive, but breaking records was not the intention of last night's game. The intention was to improve as a team, and for that reason I was glad to see Coach Miles play Darrell Williams, Derrius Guice and Nick Brosette late in the game.
The bottom line: LSU has the talent to be very special, but they haven't played like a championship team lately. There's a part of me that believes this team has played down to its competition the last two weeks but will play much better when the stakes are higher. I sure hope that's the case, as LSU only has one more chance to improve before taking on an undefeated Florida team that really put it on Ole Miss last night. What's interesting is that four top-10 teams lost yesterday, so LSU could actually see itself climb in the polls when they're released later today. One more thing: Hats off to the feisty Eastern Michigan Eagles for their fearless play.
Here's what Coach Les Miles had to say in his post-game press conference:
Opening Statement…
"I just want to say congratulations to Eastern Michigan. I watched the Michigan State and Eastern Michigan game a year ago. If you watched that game, Michigan State was certainly a highly ranked team. So we knew we were playing a team that was capable, could move the football and had players. I'm glad that we responded the way we did. We are certainly not perfect. We had our first turnover of the year, but the offense took the first two possessions right down the field to score. There are ways to manage the second possession better. We got three. We were in position to drive it out and get it back in our own territory. We turned it over. Then we come right back to get three and score again in the opening drive. There were some things that were very positive. I wish that we wouldn't have dropped so many balls. We will work on that again and reaffirm that desire to throw and catch. We rushed just under 400 yards, 399. We threw for 80 yards. We would have thrown for 200 or maybe 150 if we had caught balls. It's nice to have a running back that sets an all-time SEC record. He's the first back to rush for 200 yards in three consecutive games. That's Leonard Fournette. It's nice to put the other backs in and see that they are talented guys too. We are really looking forward to sinking our teeth into an SEC opponent. They are an opponent that we will have to play well against on the road at South Carolina."
On Leonard Fournette's 75 yard touchdown to open the second half…
"Leonard is liable to do something like that at any time. There is not a time when you hand him the ball that he doesn't have an opportunity to hit a homerun. I anticipate those kind of things will happen."
On LSU's penalties tonight against Eastern Michigan…
"I think the things that bother me are very fixable. The good news is that we came out of this game very healthy. I still don't like the penalties. They are more threatening than they have been. It will be interesting to see what these look like. This is the second week in a row that we have had a helmet come off and our guy continued to play. The problem is the helmet is ripped off our guy's head. He is in a block with a guy who took his helmet off, and that guy is going full ride. He can't disengage. We will have to get him acquired to that. We were offsides defensively a couple times. Arden Key and Kendell Beckwith were two of those, which we can't have those."
Here are video highlights of last night's game, and below is the boxscore.
Tune in tomorrow for much more on the game.
Closing tidbits:
• Here's a good read to go along with your Sunday morning coffee: Leonard Fournette again throws flailing Tigers a victory preserver: Ron Higgins
• All the scores from this weekend's Louisiana high school football games have been added to our scoreboard. Later today we'll process the results of this week's pickem contest so that we can announce this week's winner tomorrow.

Sad that the boy had to experience that..sad that the man's life has come to what it has..there are no winners. It's sad all the way...
But it's still sad. There are no winners in this situation. It's sad that a little kid could get hurt, but it's also sad that some...
I thinks that's a good observation, actually.

"In the traditional approach to medical management, nurses or medical experts are brought into the process late, which means medical information critical to the claim may be unrecognized, diluted, or lost," explains Doug Markham, Executive Vice President of Avizent's Managed Care Service division. "In addition, the nurses and case managers often work for an organization other than the claims management provider, and may not share the same level of commitment to the client's goals."
Under Avizent's TeamCOMP approach, the key people involved in the claim share three-point contact responsibility. The adjuster makes initial contact with the injured worker and employer, and launches any necessary investigations. Then, the nurse - not the adjuster - contacts the medical provider to determine and document the diagnosis, treatment plan and disability status; and to review next steps including the need for telephonic case management. Treatment plans are developed using evidence-based outcomes and pre-set guidelines. The adjuster and the nurse work as a team - reporting to the same organization, using the same information systems, and focusing on the same goals and service levels. This model encourages shared decision-making with informed subject matter experts from the beginning to the end of the claim.

The invention is directed to an infrared thermometer and to a method for determining the temperature according to the independent patent claims. For measuring body temperatures of patients it is known to use digital, electronic thermometers which may be based on the use of contact type temperature sensors or on infrared measurements. Infrared thermometers are widely used because of their fast measurement and their ease of use. In view of the diagnostic value for temperature measurement, there are differences between several measurement sites on the human body.
The hypothalamus is the most accurate site to obtain the body temperature. It is located in the base of the brain, and acts as the body's thermostat. The goal of the hypothalamus is to maintain the body's core temperature (heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, brain, etc).
Traditionally, body temperature has been detected by contact thermometers in oral, rectal, or axillary sites. These sites are chosen for convenience rather than correctness, due to there exist many factors to influence the accuracy, such as: unsteady and unsuitable placement of thermometer probe in the measuring site, drinking, talking, inexperienced measuring skill, etc.
Nowadays, by utilizing an infrared sensor to view and detect the tympanic membrane or ear drum's heat radiation inside the ear canal to display the body temperature in only one second, the Infrared ear thermometer has become a popular, quick body temperature measurement tool. However, there exists some drawback on using the infrared ear thermometer for getting the body temperature, such as:
Though it has been claimed as a non-invasive measuring thermometer, its probe head still needs to be inserted into the ear canal for temperature measuring. As the probe tip diameter is equal or even a little bit bigger than the normal adult's and especially the children's ear canal's regular diameter, when inserting the probe head into the ear canal, the close contact between the ear thermometer probe and the ear canal's internal skin wall will cause a rapid heat increase on the probe and result in a temperature rising on the infrared sensor's cold junction. This prevents from getting a stable or accurate temperature reading display. The close contact between the probe and the ear canal internal skin will also cool down the ear temperature after the continuous measurement with the repeated probe insertion into and pulling out of the ear canal. Moreover, the innate curvature structure inside the ear canal will make the probe inconsistently to be inserted into the ear canal for getting a consistent reading. Furthermore, the high moisture level leads to a low ear temperature reading caused by the residual amniotic fluid in neonates' ear canals, not mentioning about the inapplicability for newborn baby's small ear diameter, as about 5.5 mm, to be inserted with the bigger ear thermometer probe tip, with the diameter for about 7.5˜8.0 mm. There are still some more usage concerns when using ear thermometers: The earwax may result in an inaccurate reading, the curvature structure inside the ear canal may cause an inconsistent measuring result due to the inappropriate probe positioning in the ear canal, the inconvenience and cost consuming concern for the necessity to put on the probe covers, the unreliable measurement reading display caused by the poor heat insulation design of the probe assembly, the disturbance to the sleeping patient (specially the infant or children) during the temperature measuring, the cool effect and low read concern from continuous measuring with repeated probe insertion into the ear canal within a short period of time, and the inapplicability for the bigger probe to be inserted into patient's ear, especially the concern of smaller ear diameter for children under aged two or even neonates.
By replacing the known ear thermometer with a body surface skin thermometer such as a forehead thermometer for getting a body temperature, the above problems are then solved. The forehead thermometer is a real non-invasive thermometer. The sensor inside the probe assembly will not be heated up by the body surface skin as the probe does not need to be inserted into the body cavity for getting the body temperature. With the probe's soft and smooth contact on the center area of the forehead skin, the temperature can be easily detected and displayed. The body surface temperature is the result of the energy supplied from the core via the blood perfusion and the energy lost to the environment via radiation, convection, and evaporation. The reason to detect the body temperature from the forehead skin is that the blood vessel distributes for only about 0.1 mm beneath the forehead skin. The heat is easy to be detected, and the instant heat or temperature change will be quickly sensed, as the blood flow in the temporal arteries is extending from the carotid arteries. Moreover, using a forehead thermometer can eliminate the discomfort and inconvenience caused by the traditional contact pen type thermometer's probe insertion into the ear, mouth, or rectum.
However, since the body surface skin temperature will be easily affected by the ambient temperature change, the forehead skin temperature to be measured at different ambient temperatures is quite different, even when the core body temperature is about the same.
It thus has been suggested to take into consideration the influence of different ambient temperatures to the body surface skin temperature measurement for using such infrared thermometers. In U.S. Pat. No. 6,056,435, there is disclosed a body temperature detector which is suited for axillary temperature measurements of adults. An internal temperature of the body is computed as a function of a target surface temperature. In this function, a weighted difference of surface temperature and ambient temperature is taken into account. The weighting is varied with a target temperature. A similar solution is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,292,685. These proposals, have, however, some drawbacks. Especially, the method suggested is based on complicated theoretical models. Calculation needs relatively powerful microprocessors. In addition, there are certain concerns in view of accuracy of the calculation.
In U.S. Pat. No. 5,199,436, there is disclosed a radiation detector. The detector disclosed therein is directed to a tympanic measurement. The problem of contact with the ear canal is thus not solved. A tympanic temperature is adjusted to provide an indication of core temperature. This application also has certain drawbacks. Firstly, relatively complicated calculations are proposed for adjustment of the temperature which requires powerful calculating arrangements. Secondly, the problem of contact with the ear canal is not addressed. Thirdly, by measuring the ambient temperature, inaccurate measurement results may be created if there is a difference between the cold junction of a thermopile of the infrared detector and the ambient temperature. Other radiation detectors are known from U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,012,813, 5,150,696, 5,333,784, 4,993,419, 4,797,840, 4,784,149, 4,846,583, 5,024,533, 5,232,284, 5,271,407, 5,167,235, 5,445,158, 5,653,238, 5,874,736. None of these documents completely solves the above mentioned problems, namely problems associated with contact of a temperature sensor with an ear canal as well as problems related to relatively complicated prior art calculations for determining a temperature of a first body site in dependence of the measurement at another body site.
In U.S. Pat. No. 5,967,992, there is disclosed a radiometric temperature measurement which is based on empirical measurements and linear functions. It is claimed that by use of lookup means, the calculation of an estimated temperature may be simplified. This solution, however, still has certain drawbacks. It is directed e.g. to a tympanic thermometer which does not solve the problem of contact between the sensor and the ear canal.
It is an object of the present invention, to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art, especially, to provide an infrared thermometer which easily allows to determine the temperature of a first body site, in particular the corresponding oral, rectal, axillary, or other body site reference temperatures based on a body surface skin temperature measurement. The thermometer according to the invention should not need powerful microcomputers for calculation of this first body site temperature. In addition, the thermometer according to the present invention should have an improved accuracy as compared to prior art thermometers.
According to the present invention, these objects are solved with a thermometer according to the independent patent claims.
The thermometer according to the invention is used for determining a temperature of a first body site. The first body site especially may be selected from the group of rectal and oral temperature. Determination of this temperature shall be made by measurement at a second body site, e.g. at the forehead surface skin of a patient. The thermometer has an infrared sensor, in particular a thermopile for detection of a body surface skin temperature at this second body site. This sensor is used for producing body surface skin temperature signal data. The thermometer is further provided with means for determining a reference temperature, namely the temperature of the cold junction of the infrared sensor or the temperature of the operating ambient air. These means for determining the reference temperature are used to produce reference operating temperature signal data. The thermometer is further provided with a calculating unit and with the memory associated with the calculating unit. The memory has data derived from clinical tests stored therein. The calculating unit is adapted to calculate an estimated temperature of the first body site on the basis of the body surface skin temperature signal data, the reference operating temperature signal data and the corresponding data stored in the memory. The design as outlined has several advantages. Firstly, the temperature may be measured at any site of the surface skin of the body. Insertion of the sensor inside the probe into the ear canal can be avoided. Secondly, the use of clinical empirical data enhances the accuracy of the calculation of the temperature at the first body site. The means for measuring the reference operating temperature may be formed by any temperature measuring unit known to one skilled in the art. According to a preferred embodiment, the means for measuring the reference operating temperature may be formed by the infrared sensor. A common infrared sensor produces a voltage output which is proportional to the temperature difference between the hot junction and the cold junction of a thermopile. The cold junction has a temperature corresponding substantially to the temperature of the ambient air. The hot junction receives the radiation of the target. Such a thermopile may be used to measure the temperature of the ambient air and thus to produce the reference operating temperature signal. The reference operating temperature may e.g. be measured by means of the infrared sensor when the thermometer is turned on. This reference temperature value may then be stored and used for calculation during the measurement at the first body site.
According to an alternative embodiment, the means for measuring a reference operating temperature may be formed by a thermistor built inside the infrared sensor, or by an infrared sensor.
The physiological site offset, i.e. the difference between the temperature measured at the second body site to the common reference body temperature at the first body site may vary and depend on many parameters. It may be difficult to find a theoretical model for these dependencies. By making reference to empirical clinical data, all these dependencies can be taken into account. In addition, the use of reference data stored in lookup tables makes calculation faster and needs less calculation resources.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the temperature sensor for measuring a reference operating signal is directly arranged in the infrared sensor. Thereby, the temperature of the cold junction of a thermopile of the infrared sensor is determined. Taking into account this temperature leads to more accurate results than taking into account only the ambient temperature.
The previously acquired clinical test data or data derived therefrom may be stored in a built-in non-volatile memory, e.g. in a ROM or EEPROM in the thermometer.
According to a further preferred embodiment, the thermometer according to the invention, especially, its calculating unit is adapted to determine the sum of a body surface skin temperature, i.e. the temperature at the second body site and of a physiological site offset value. The "physiological site offset" is defined as a difference between the measured forehead center (or other body site) surface skin temperature and the corresponding reference body site temperature, such as the oral or rectal temperature. With the technology of the invention, the "physiological site offset" value may be accessed and added to the measured forehead center surface skin temperature for getting the data of the corresponding reference body site temperature reading. This "physiological site offset" data can be accessed from the lookup table inside the thermometer unit's non-volatile memory, ROM, or EEPROM by taking the measured forehead center surface skin temperature as a reference base, and the simultaneously detected operating reference temperature as an index pointer. Through a microprocessor's mathematics calculation formula, a more precise, corresponding "physiological site offset" data is determined. The use of such a physiological site offset allows a very accurate approximation of the temperature at the first body site.
According to still a further embodiment of the present invention, the physiological site offset may thus be determined based on interpolation or linear approximation techniques. If in lookup tables, reference data for reference operating temperatures measured in clinical tests and temperatures measured at the first body site during clinical tests, temperatures measured at the second body site during these tests are stored, estimated values for temperatures at the first body site may be determined by means of interpolation of these reference data.
In a further preferred embodiment, lookup tables may be used, which have a first group data related to temperature values of the second body site acquired during clinical tests, a second group of data relating to reference operating temperatures such as ambient or cold junction temperatures determined during these tests and a third group of data having data relating to temperatures which have been effectively measured at the first body site during these clinical tests. Clinical tests are made at the plurality of differed conditions, especially for different patients (sex, age) at different ambient temperatures and for patients having different body temperatures.
According to still a further preferred embodiment, the thermometer may have a plurality of operating modes. It is conceivable to provide a measurement mode and a calibration mode. The thermometer may thus have means for switching between these two modes. In the calibration mode, it is possible to make a calibration on a black body which is e.g. dipped into a water bath at controllable constant water temperature with sufficient high temperature stability. Other embodiments are conceivable: it is especially possible to provide different measurement modes for calculating estimated temperatures at different kinds of first body sites with one and the same thermometer: it thus may be possible to switch the thermometer between a calculation of corresponding oral and rectal temperatures. Different lookup tables may be stored within the thermometer and reference is made to a specific lookup table depending on the measurement mode which may be selected by the user, or preset by the manufacturer.
The invention is further directed to a method for determining a temperature of a first body site of a patient with an infrared thermometer. The method is preferably made by means of an infrared thermometer as described above. After the thermometer unit is turned on, a reference ambient temperature is detected, e.g. by the infrared sensor inside the unit, or by the thermistor built inside the infrared sensor, a reference temperature signal data is determined; after putting the thermometer probe closely onto the target surface skin to be measured, a body surface skin temperature at a second body site is measured by the same infrared sensor, a body surface skin temperature signal data is thereby produced. In a further step, a lookup table with data stored in a memory of the infrared thermometer is accessed by a calculating unit. Based on the data of the lookup table, the measured body surface skin temperature signal data and the measured reference operating temperature signal, an estimated temperature of the first body site is determined with a calculating unit within the infrared thermometer.
Therefore, the present invention brings a different "physiological site offset" value between different measured forehead skin temperature and the concurrently detected corresponding body site temperature under different simultaneously sensed operating ambient temperature on the basis of the substantial number of the test target out of the repeated comprehensive clinical test results done in a hospital.
By using this technology, through detecting the forehead skin temperature, sensing a concurrent operating reference temperature, the microprocessor inside the thermometer can immediately find a compensated offset value from the lookup table in the thermometer's EEPROM for adding together with the measured forehead temperature, to form a result as equivalent to the corresponding reference body site temperature without the concern of the ambient temperature change to influence the forehead skin temperature detection.
The invention will be more clearly understood with reference to the following embodiments and the attached drawings, in which:
Referring to
The following mathematical interpolation method and its formulas explain how a corresponding physiological site offset value may be determined from a lookup table based on a forehead center surface temperature and its concurrently measured operating ambient temperature:
Referring to
The following variables are unknown and are to be calculated:
For determining O1, a linear interpolation is made on the basis of other variables which are known or can be accessed from the lookup table:
From (A1-A)/(A1-A2)=(O11-O1)/(O11-O21)
there follows
For determining "O2" a linear interpolation is made in a similar way.
From (A1-A)/(A1-A2)=(O12-O2)/(O12-O22)
there follows
For getting "O" (The unknown variable here, and the actual physiological site offset data value) a linear interpolation is made. From the above mathematical calculation results and
there follows
The final reading display of this forehead (or other body site) surface skin thermometer is an estimation of the temperature at a first body site (e.g. oral) on the basis of a measurement at a 2nd body site (e.g. the forehead).
The final body temperature reading display equals to F+O.
"F" is the measured target forehead center surface skin temperature at the second site; while "O" is the corresponding calculated physiological offset value between the forehead center skin temperature and the temperature at the first site.
Based on the measured forehead skin temperature and the concurrently detected operating ambient temperature, the above calculation method is called the mathematical interpolation method, which can allow to calculate an offset value by getting and averaging two adjacent collected offset data from a lookup table, with the adjacent data as one smaller while another larger than the desired offset value. From the lookup table, the microprocessor will first take two ambient temperature data "A1" and "A2", adjacent the measured ambient temperature data. Two forehead temperature data adjacent "F1", "F2", adjacent to the measured forehead temperature will be determined. Four corresponding physiological site offset data "O11", "O12", "O21", and "O22", are then accessed referring to the above mathematical calculations. Through the above mathematical formulas, the estimated corresponding offset value "O", is then determined, on the basis of the measured forehead skin temperature "F", and the simultaneously detected operating ambient temperature "A. Then, this offset data is added to the detected forehead skin temperature. A final corresponding body site (such as oral or rectal) temperature is then displayed, taking into consideration of ambient temperature change. Instead of ambient temperatures A, A1, A2 cold junction temperatures may be measured and used.

BMC Cancer 2014, 14:248 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-14-248Published: 9 April 2014
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been associated with diabetes and obesity, but a possible connection with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its potential interaction with hepatitis and cirrhosis are open to discussion. Our previous investigations have shown that GGPPS1 plays a critical role during hyperinsulinism. In this report, the expression and distribution of GGPPS1 in liver cancer, and its clinical significance were investigated.
70 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were included in this study. Three different types of tissues from each HCC patient were assembled immediately after surgical resection: tumor-free tissue >5 cm far from tumor edge (TF), adjacent nonmalignant tissue within 2 cm (AT), and tissue from the tumor (TT). Normal liver tissues from 10 liver transplant donors served as healthy control (HC) while 10 patients with liver cirrhosis as cirrhosis control (CC). The expression and distribution of GGPPS1 were detected by immunohistochemistry, western blots, or real-time PCR. The relationship between the expression of GGPPS1 and clinic pathologic index were analyzed.
We found that GGPPS1 was intensified mainly in the cytoplasm of liver tumor cells. Both the expression of GGPPS1 mRNA and protein were upregulated in TT comparing to AT or TF. Meanwhile, HCC patients with cirrhosis had relative higher expression of GGPPS1. In addition, many pathologic characters show close correlation with GGPPS1, such as tumor stage, vessel invasion, and early recurrence.
GGPPS1 may play a critical role during the development of HCC from cirrhosis and is of clinical significance for predicting biological character of HCC.

Edit: Problem solved, see Cordovan's post a few levels below for an explanation. Thanks bro!
On one of my characters, I unknowingly selected to use the 'free' reincarnation to change my class levels, but what I didn't realize is that I was supposed to pick the other option instead of the 'free' option. I never used my LR yet, but is it possible to submit a ticket to a GM so this mistake can be corrected? Or am I totally screwed with no hope of getting a +20 LR token?

Introducing Enhydra
Experienced web developers, regardless of the language or environment, are used to writing a separate program for each web page. If you want to display five different dynamically generated pages, then you must write five different CGI programs, mod_perl handlers, servlets or JSP pages.
Enhydra allows developers to break away from this model, thinking in terms of applications rather than individual pages. The way to do this is with super servlets, as they are known, in which a single application object is associated with multiple presentation objects.
You can easily identify a presentation object in an Enhydra URL; the suffix .po tells Enhydra that it should invoke the object named in the URL. So requesting Abc.po will execute the run() method for the presentation object Abc. Unlike standard Java servlets, presentation objects are instantiated once for each HTTP request. This may be less efficient than using multiple threads on a single-servlet instance, but it does remove the headaches associated with writing threadsafe servlet code.
A simple Enhydra application will thus consist of at least one application object, plus at least one presentation object. These POs, as they are known, can then connect to the two other main types of Enhydra objects: business objects (which perform commonly needed functions) and data objects (which map persistent storage, such as a relational database, to a Java class). Each of these three types of objects—presentation, business and data—has its own directory within an application's src subdirectory, as we have already seen. Moreover, each of these objects constitutes one of the three standard tiers in a three-tier web application. So while it might take some time to get used to the separation between object types, this model is becoming increasingly prevalent in web applications.
Once again, we will use Enhydra's appwizard to create a skeleton application that we can change. Run appwizard again, but choose super servlet from the selection list on the first screen, rather than a simple web application. I chose to call the project myproject and to put it in the il.co.lerner package, which is what I use for internal projects at my company. appwizard then creates a skeleton application in ~/enhydraApps/myproject. The application has a similar structure to our servlet, with a similar directory structure. Under src/il/co/lerner, we have presentation, data and business directories. And once again, there is a top-level Makefile that will compile and create our super servlet.
Look at presentation/WelcomePresentation.java, the source code for the presentation object that will eventually be displayed. Indeed, if we type make at the top-level directory, run output/start4 to start our application and point our web browser to http://localhost:9000/, we will find that our browser is redirected to http://localhost:9000/WelcomePresentation.po. This page displays the same sample output that our skeleton servlet printed, with the Enhydra logo and the current time and date.
The po suffix, as we already know, tells Enhydra to invoke the run() method in WelcomePresentation. In the automatically created skeleton application, WelcomePresentation.run() looks like Listing 3.
Listing 3. WelcomePresentation.run()
The super servlet interface is similar to that of a regular servlet and does not take much time for a programmer familiar with servlets to learn. The run() method takes a single argument of type HttpPresentationComms, which provides our presentation object with all of its communication needs to the outside world, including the HTTP request and response objects.
The run() method displays output by creating an instance of WelcomeHTML, the Java class that XMLC created from the file Welcome.HTML. Following that, run() replaces the contents of the <span> tags with an ID of "time" with the current date and time. Then we write the contents of welcome, which contains a DOM tree, to the HTTP response object.
We can create our own presentation object, FooPresentation, as demonstrated in Listing 4. Remember to add the new object to the CLASSES line in the presentation directory's Makefile. When you rerun make from the top-level application directory, FooPresentation will be compiled and inserted into our Enhydra application.
Listing 4. FooPresentation.java
It's very nice to be able to write our own presentation objects, but where is the application object that is controlling them? In the main source directory, at the same level as the presentation, data and business directories, there is a Java class file whose name is the same as the project—so in our case, there is a file at src/il/co/lerner/myproject.java.

Dr. Kam Kassiri's Ratings
I have been on his "we will call you when we can perform this surgery" list for 2.5 years. I wonder how much longer I will have to wait to be called. I went to see him on the recommendation of another specialist. While there, the staff made me feel that neither I nor my eye problem was important. Doctor did not tell me anything.

Long wait time for my surgery. However it was well worth the wait. I strongly recommend him.

I had a work injury to the right side of my face three years ago. I gradually lost vision in my right eye. I was seen by an eye doctor and I was told that I was legally blind in that eye. I was referred to Dr. Kassiri to see if anything could be done. He sent me to another specialist for ultrasound of my eye. Dr. Kasiri then operated on my eye. Last week when I saw my original eye doctor again after surgery he told me I could see 25/20 with that eye! Dr Kasiri is a miracle worker and I owe my life to him. He is an amazing surgeon.

I saw Dr. Kassiri in 2011. Besides a very smug and insincere manner, he did not wash his hands when he inspected my eye. In addition, during the surgery, he was very unprofessional and did not explain the procedure to me and abruptly left the room after the surgery was over without explaining the after care instructions. He left that job up to the nurse who was very sympathetic. In the follow up appointment, Dr. Kassiri was surprisingly pleasant. I will not return to see this doctor.

It was a lengthy process and few visits until I had my surgery done. Staff were helpful but at times had to wait a while until I got my testing done. I had my surgery on September 20th 2014. I could not be happier with the results. Wish I had done it sooner.

Dr. Kassiri has been an excellent eye doctor for three of my children. Most recently I wanted to have refractive surgery. I decided to have my surgery with Dr. Kassiri last weekend and today I could already see 20/20. I am very thankful!

There is no other doctor that have ever caused me so much grieve as dr Kassiri. As much as he is personable, and surgery technically was correct, he is lacking knowledge. On top he does not admit his mistake nor wants to fix the error. He overcorrected my astigmatism with torque lens ($1200), causing worse astigmatism then before cataract surgery. The eye condition was dramatically deteriorating due to drastic light refraction caused by new lens. I had to find other doctor to replace it after 6 month with great danger. Dr Kassiri refused to do it when timing was right. I do not recommend him for cataract surgery. Absolutely not!

Dr. Kassiri was amazing! Being able to see 20/20 for the first time is such an incredible gift and I could not have asked anyone better to help me see the world! His bedside manner was incredible and I felt comfortable during the entire experience. At no point did I wonder what was going on and my fears completely disappeared when he answered all of my questions and concerns. Thank you again for this amazing gift!
